Year IV - One World

Year IV meant flying a lot more, and bringing my vision and ideas to life. Golden hour in the summer in New York. Hazy light can provide atmosphere and depth. In the right conditions when the light source is obscured by buildings you can witness momentary magic. This moment happened so quickly, i actually shot this across the helicopter and the pilot. One World Trade was being backlit by the sun, and symmetrically framed by clouds and the rest of the downtown denizens. This split second moment wouldn't have been captured had I not spent hours honing my craft.
